Berkeley, and the Sunday Assembly one in Mountain View. I care more about the Berkeley one, and much of the reason I went to the other was to see what differences that group was doing with their liturgy. Much more sedate emotionally, although pretty energetic musically: they have a rock band instead of a choir; they opened with “Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog”. They still did “When I Die” and “Do You Realize?” though, and their venue allowed candles. Also, I think they have a running gag about playing “Wonderwall” that I didn’t quite pick up on.
Oh cool, glad to hear from someone who went to the Mountain View one—I’d be interested in any more thoughts/impressions you have on that. (I’ve talked to them and looked over their script/setlist, so I have a rough idea of what happened, but curious how it felt to someone familiar with LW)
Thanks! Curious which events you attended? (I’m guessing Berkeley and Seattle, but wasn’t sure)

Not sure what else to add, but if I think of anything later I’ll do so.
